The North East Point beach is a popular white sandy beach, great for swimming, walking and just relaxing the day away. During the summer months you can try your hand at rowing a traditional Nova Scotia dory with the Queen of Hearts Dory Club, you can also join the crowd to watch the Nova Scotia Boat Racers Association boat races. Take part in the Shelburne County Lobster Festival events in June as we celebrate the ending of the lobster season. You will be able to watch as lobstermen haul their lobster traps during lobster season and see a spectacular display of fireworks during our Festival of Lights in December.

This camera offers a unique perspective of Peggy's Cove from Holy Mackerel, a whimsical gift shop in the heart of Nova Scotia's most beloved fishing village. The view captures the picturesque cove inlet where colourful fishing boats bob alongside weathered wharves, lobster traps stack high, and the timeless rhythm of Maritime life unfolds daily. Just steps away, the famous lighthouse stands sentinel on its glacier-smoothed granite, drawing visitors from around the world.
